Anchoring for the fault line under North Salt Lake
North Salt Lake sits against the Wasatch fault, and the bench here carries real landslide history, which is why hillside construction gets engineered footings and why anchoring here is treated as a safety system, not a convenience. The rules are simple and we do not bend them. Nothing past about 32 inches and 30 pounds hangs on drywall-only anchors. Big screens get four-point lag bolt patterns spread across two studs. Bracket safety screws get snugged so a panel cannot bounce free in shaking, and tilt or full-motion arms get their pivot bolts torque-checked, because a loose arm amplifies movement. On masonry, anchors go into the brick face or the mortar joint, whichever lines up with the mount holes, and never into crumbly mortar. None of this costs extra in North Salt Lake; it is simply how the checklist reads. Anchored right, a wall-mounted screen rides out shaking better than one balanced on a stand ever will.
